The Bureau of International Labor Affairs of the U.S. Department of Labor intends to award a Cooperative Agreement aimed at addressing child labor, forced labor, and improving working conditions in select supply chains in Brazil and other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. The project will support labor stakeholders, including Brazil's Ministry of Labor and Employment, in implementing tripartite "pactos" to promote decent work and combat labor violations. This initiative is crucial for enhancing labor standards and protecting vulnerable populations in the region. The estimated total program funding is $15 million, with awards ranging from $5 million to $15 million, and interested parties can contact Carlie Ortiz at (202) 693-9303 or via email at ortiz.carlie@dol.gov for further information. Note that this is a Notice of Intent, and applications are not currently being accepted.
